James Wilder Jr. has made his share of highlight reel-worthy plays in the playoffs. And he got another one Friday night against Countryside in the region finals.

The senior running back stiff-armed the Cougars defense on one of his three nifty touchdown runs. And he was pretty ferocious on defense as well.

And what comes out in the playoffs? The Wilder Beast, of course.
